How to change user name in Azure DevOps - azure

My user was migrated to another domain. I registered a wrong user name and I want to edit it again. I can only change my email but not the user name. I cannot find a way to register again.

You will have to change your organization name. You can do this from the "Organization Settings" (which is at the bottom in the left panel at the time of this writing).

How to change root Docusign account information

I'd like to change the root of a Docusign Dev account from one person to another but I don't see if and how that's possible. I could create a new account however since we have envelopes and specific settings in the account, abandoning the current account would be our option of last resort.
The terms "account" and "user" are sometimes confused.
For the user:
Log in to the developer account in question.
From upper-right menu select "Manage Profile."
You'll find the profile page where you can change the email and name.
For the account:
Log in to the developer account in question.
From the top navigation bar select "Settings."
From the left menu select "Account Profile."
Click sign up and log in to your account and then enter your name and email. If that worked and you managed to sign up that’s great. If not, please contact the company.

Ghost of deleted user profile is haunting me (shows up in search results and tags)

When I joined my current company, a new user was created for me that had a random capitalized letter in the email address.
All attempts to fix the error were in vain, as there always remained some random place where the capitalization error showed up again.
In the end, IT decided the best solution was to just delete the user and start over (not a big deal as I was a new user).
So far, everything looked OK, until we noticed that in the Azure DevOps (TFS) the old user still showed up in search results, probably since it was not removed before the user was deleted.
As you can see, instead of an e-mail it shows the follwing:
OIDCONFLICT_UpnReuse_3f39b....
Is there a way to delete the old user permanently and prevent it from showing up?
Currently people can tag the old user, which is a big nuisance.
I'm not the IT guy, but I hope to find a lead to help them solve this issue.
Thanks!
You can delete the User permanently by using the below commands in Azure CLI
Note: the below mentioned command require admin access.
az devops user remove --user
--org
--yes
The above mentioned CLI command will help you in removing user permanently from the Azure Devops organization.
Example:
After user put email address
in the link put your organization name
Parameters
user: User's email to be removed.
org: Organization name from which user should be removed.
Below command will help you in configuring default organization if you are not configured
az devops configure -d organization=ORG_URL.
Use the below command if the default organization is picked up from different path
git config.
yes: Don't prompt for confirmation.
you can Refer for further details.
Sign in with a member user from Azure AD into the Azure DevOps organization and go to or click on "Settings / Azure Active Directory"
At the top, you will see a banner with the following message
4 member(s) of the x-ops organization can't sign in because they're not in the XOPSX Azure Active Directory. Delete any unwanted users in Organization settings, and then Resolve for remaining members. with a Resolve button next to it
You will have to click on Resolve to map the "Current Email" with the "Matched Identity in Directory" to map the user with its identity and resolve this issue.

Azure DevOps Work items unassigned user not found

I added a new user to my project and he's an admin too to it, but when I click on create a new user story/bug/... his name doesn't show up, I have to look him up manually:
I want to be able to see him once I click in that box. He is already in my users under project settings.
Azure DevOps Work items unassigned user not found
That because drop down is actually a cached list of users you have assigned tasks to in the past.
So, you just need enter their first name or email address to search him and assign to him. Next time, you will see him in the drop down list.
Details steps:
When assigning a user to a task, enter their first name and click the
search button. The user should be brought back by the search. Assign
the user to the task.
Next time you go to assign a user to a task, if you click on the drop
down list should now display the user as it is now cached.
Hope this helps.

Verify a domain name in Azure Active Directory

I have added a domain name to my Azure Active Directory account, but it says that the domain name is unverified.
In order to to verify the domain name, I go into my 'default directory' and go to the 'Domains' tab, where I can see my whatever.com domain name listed. I click it to highlight it and then click on the Verify button at the bottom bar and a box pops up: 'Configure domain for single sign-on', telling me to go to the "Directory Integration page and complete all steps..." There's also a checkbox, asking to take me to the Directory Integration page now. And that's it, except for the tick button in the bottom right.
The only option I have, is to be sent to the Directory Integrations page, with help topics that point to other web pages that do not necessarily reflect what I'm seeing inside the Azure Portal, in terms of verify domain names.
I understand that I need to create a TXT record on the domain name I have already purchased, and I can see from other screenshots that I need to find a value within Azure (somewhere) that has the value 'MS=xxxxxx' but finding out where to get that value from is proving difficult.
Am I looking in the wrong place for this?
In the current version of the management portal, the necessary verification information is only displayed if you do not check the option for "I plan to configure this domain for single sign-on...".
If you add the domain and leave that option unchecked, the next step of the dialog will display the MS=xxxxxxxxx value that you need to register as a TXT entry on your DNS server.
I believe the reason it's not displayed when you opt for single sign-on is that the value is meant to be retrieved as part of the AD FS configuration (or whichever STS implementation you will be deploying).
Check out this article: Quick Start Guide for Integrating a Single Forest On-Premises Active Directory with Windows Azure AD
In particular you are probably looking for the Get-MsolDomainVerificationDns cmdlet.
I don't have an AD FS deployment to verify this on currently, but I'd be very surprised if the TXT values differ between the two setups, so the first thing I would try is grabbing the value from the screens when the single sign-on is not selected and adding it to your DNS zone.
Hopefully, this points you in the right direction.
Edit: An updated article covering the updated management portal is now available: Add a custom domain name to Azure Active Directory
Type the below code into your Windows Azure Active Directory Module for Powershell
Get-MsolDomainVerificationDns -DomainName <domainName> -Mode dnstxtrecord
where domainName is the domain that you need to verify.
You will get a Label,Text And TTL. You need to add this to the DNS record of your domain(domainName) and then type the below code to complete the verification process.
Confirm-MSolDomain -DomainName <domainName>
Ofcourse you need to connect to your azure account before you verify the domain.
Connect-MsolService –Credential $cred
If you are adding a new domain:
Be sure you're in the "Domains" tab in the portal when you add your domain via the popup dialog.
Once it says it's successfully added, click the "right arrow" button in the bottom-right of the dialog
The second page should have the TXT record you need to add.
If you already added it and it's waiting to be verified:
Be sure you're in the "Domains" tab in the portal.
Select your domain with an "Unverified" status.
Click on the "Verify" icon at the bottom and it will bring up a dialog with the TXT record you need to add.

Unable to add users into sharepoint if i am Using emails as account name in Active Directory

I am using moss 2007 version 12.0.0.6421. and Active directory version 6.0.. . my AD domain is siamint so if i add a user as vikas. it gets added in AD with logon name as vikas#siamint.com now if i add a user sahil#yahoo.com into ad. it gets added as sahil#yahoo.com#siamint. now when i try to add user from peoples and groups,site settings in a sharepoint site; i gets user siamint\sahil in people picker. rather it should be siamint\sahil#yahoo.com. it means the name is truncated from #. Is this a sharepoint error or what. Ultimately i think it means we cannot add users with # in their usernames.
When you add a user to Active-Directory you give a "user session Name" (1) which is composed with the domain name (2) to give an attribute which is the real login name stored in an attribute called "userPrincipalName".
So "jpb#dom.fr" in the preceding picture IS NOT a mail adress but the UPN (userPrincipalName) of your user in Active-Directory.
Since Windows 2000 UPN is supposed to replace the old login string (3)
Edited
Sorry, it's in french, but as you can see '#' is allowed in the logon part of the UPN. Look in Microsoft documentation (Active directory naming) for more information.
